Convert Band to Sleeve

In most cases, the LAP Band is a highly effective way to defeat hunger as an obstacle, and achieve weight loss once and for all. There are cases however in which the LAP Band results in other effects. These patients learn the hard way that it wasn’t their ideal surgical solution. Surgery to convert band to sleeve gastrectomy and use a stomach reduction and reshaping approach, rather than a stomach-restricting approach is often the way forward.

While gastric sleeve after LAP Band is indubitably not the most tantalizing option in the short term, the news is not all bad. If you’re planning to convert from band to sleeve gastrectomy, you’ve already gotten past the tough decision-making phase, and you’ve taken steps to change your diet for a post-surgery digestive system. When you convert band to sleeve, you’ll find that the only thing dramatically different is that you’re achieving weight loss results.
